Rihanna books two hotels for London gigs to make sure she stays in luxury

Rihanna likes to use the Tube when she’s in London but she goes for the slightly more opulent option when it comes to hotels – by booking TWO places to stay.

The superstar is splashing out £2,000 on a luxury penthouse suite at the five-star Corinthia hotel in Whitehall and £10,000 on a whole floor at Wembley Stadium’s Hilton for her gig in June.

Her people have decided the dressing rooms at the venue are way too small and not nearly luxurious enough.

Plus, Riri plans to have a massive party before and after her performance and wants to invite all of her London-based pals, including models Cara Delevingne and Jourdan Dunn.

A source says: “As well as her regular VIP suite in central London, Rihanna wants an entire hotel floor near the venue to chill out with celeb pals and entourage so her friends can drink and party in luxury before she goes on stage.

“She also plans on having a huge afterparty and doesn’t want guests in neighbouring rooms to complain about noise, so thought she’d solve the problem by booking out the entire floor.

“She still wants a central London base to attend meetings and hit the shops while she’s in the UK so thought it made sense to book out another hotel too. She can afford it so why not?”

The Bajan singer, 27, is due to perform 68 gigs on her ANTI world tour, including seven in the UK.
